Bay Area thrash metal band Trauma are out on a US tour with prog metal vets Queensrÿche and guitar shredder Marty Friedman from March 3rd through April 16th. We were lucky to catch them on April 10 at Irving Plaza in New York City. We were notified at the last minute that we were approved and our Photographer Amanda Packey was a trooper and literally dropped everything and took off fo rthe train. She barely made it to the venue in time, but the main thing is that she did make it safely. Up first was Trauma and the band took advantage of its time given to melt some faces. Check out these kick-ass pix of the guys in action!
